Only 80 steps remained to the peak of the mountain.
By now, there were less than 20 people left.
Leading the pack was a red-haired youth dressed in black.
Fike had already noticed him when they had first started climbing up the mountain.
He was the fastest among them, and hadn't stopped at all the entire way.
Judging from his appearance, he should be quite strong.
Following closely behind him was a blue-haired girl with twin ponytails.
She wore a dignified appearance, and had not said a word throughout the entire journey. She simply concentrated on following the red-haired youth's footsteps without pause.
With Fike's support, Seigne was gradually approaching the peak as well.
As for the others, they trailed closely behind the group, not daring to relax for even a moment.
Seigne currently had his left hand draped around Fike's shoulder, his speed slowing to a crawl.
